Problem

A server behind a reverse proxy or ingress (a Kubernetes Pod, a container, a VM behind NAT) is reachable at an https address it cannot see on its own interfaces. It reports only directEndpoints from those interfaces, which inside a Pod is http://<pod-ip>:3773/.

Change

--advertise-url (repeatable) and T3CODE_ADVERTISE_URL (comma-separated) take https origins, most preferred first.

  • apps/server/src/cli/config.ts parses both with one schema. The server refuses to start on plain http, a path, a query, a fragment or credentials. Clients keep only the origin, so a URL under a path prefix would advertise whatever else lives at that origin. The env error leaves out anything before an @.
  • DirectEndpoints reports them first, as a new configured kind, then the interface addresses as before. They are reported for a loopback bind too, since a proxy on the same machine forwards there.
  • ServerDirectEndpointKind gains configured. directEndpoints is already a ForwardCompatibleArray, so a client that predates the kind drops that entry and keeps the rest.
  • A managed policy without remote clients refuses to start with an advertised address, as it already refuses Tailscale Serve.
  • No client code changes. mergeLearnedRoutes learns the address as an https route without the Tailscale tag, and linkableMachines offers it first because it keeps the server's order. The route list shows it under its hostname.

peerOrigin and the interface addresses the server reports are unchanged.

What this does not do

  • It does not probe the advertised address. Tailscale Serve is reported only after it answers, but the server often cannot reach its own external address (NAT without hairpin, a proxy on a container's host), which is the case this setting exists for, and feat(cli): t3 pair --base-url advertises a proxy or forwarded address #31659 skips the probe for the same reason. A probe would also not stop the case that matters. Someone who holds a mistyped or lapsed domain can serve a copy of the public descriptor and pass it. Clients and PeerLinks already skip an address that does not answer as this environment before they send a credential. So an advertised origin is a place credentials go, like any reported endpoint, and the user guide now says to list only addresses you control. Asking the user before a client reuses a credential at a newly advertised public origin, or pinning server identity, would be a separate change.
  • t3 pair, the startup pairing link and Settings pairing links still use the address the server finds itself. feat(cli): t3 pair --base-url advertises a proxy or forwarded address #31659 covers t3 pair --base-url. The guide points at t3 auth pairing create --base-url for now.
  • An address reported both as configured and by Tailscale Serve appears twice. Clients key routes by origin and still label the one route Tailscale, so I left both entries in.

Sibling fix: #33532 makes the link dialog drop the addresses the server refuses and show the address field. This PR is what makes picking the machine work with nothing typed.

Scope and approval

There is no prior discussion with maintainer approval for this, and I am submitting it under the focused configuration route. The established capability is direct endpoint reporting, which clients already use to learn routes and to offer addresses when linking. The option adds operator-named https origins to that list. It changes no default, no credential policy and no client behavior, and a server without the setting reports exactly what it did before. If you would rather discuss the direction first, I am happy to move this to an Ideas discussion.

Verification

Focused tests, all passing in vp run check:changed (format, lint, knip, typecheck of 37 packages, 8 test files, 101 tests):

  • cli/config.test.ts: origins normalised and de-duplicated, flag over env, and rejection of http, garbage, a path, a query and credentials, with the password absent from the error.
  • DirectEndpoints.test.ts: configured endpoints first and in order, for a LAN bind and a loopback bind.
  • managedLimits.test.ts: refused without remote clients.
  • contracts/server.test.ts: an endpoint of an unknown kind is dropped and the rest decode.
  • routes.test.ts and linkRequest.test.ts: the address is learned as an https route that borrows the paired token, and is offered first when linking.
  • PeerLinks.test.ts: a picked machine links at https://t3.example.test with its plain http Pod address refused. This test runs no code this PR changes. It pins the proxy contract the feature depends on, with a stand-in proxy that forwards the public Host and X-Forwarded-Proto: https. TLS and DNS are stubbed.

Old-client decode, run against main before the contract changed:

kinds this build knows: ["lan","tailnet"]
[{"kind":"lan","httpBaseUrl":"http://192.168.1.10:3773/"}]

A real server from this branch, in an isolated data directory, bound to 0.0.0.0:

$ node apps/server/src/bin.ts serve --host 0.0.0.0 --port 43773 --base-dir .t3/verify-advertise --no-browser \
    --advertise-url https://T3.example.test --advertise-url 'https://t3-alt.example.test:8443/,https://t3.example.test'

Read back over its WebSocket with a session token and an RPC ticket:

POST /api/auth/websocket-ticket/rpc -> 200
WS server.getConfig -> directEndpoints:
  {"kind":"configured","httpBaseUrl":"https://t3.example.test/"}
  {"kind":"configured","httpBaseUrl":"https://t3-alt.example.test:8443/"}
  {"kind":"lan","httpBaseUrl":"http://10.1.0.33:43773/"}
  {"kind":"lan","httpBaseUrl":"http://192.168.2.3:43773/"}

The first subscribeServerConfig snapshot carried the same four entries.

Refused at startup:

--advertise-url https://code.example.test/_fleet/electron/
  Invalid value for flag --advertise-url: ... is not an https origin. An advertised address is https with no path, query or credentials, such as https://t3.example.com.

T3CODE_ADVERTISE_URL='https://user:hunter2@t3.example.test'
  ConfigError: SchemaError("t3.example.test" is not an https origin. ... at ["T3CODE_ADVERTISE_URL"])   exit 1

managed policy with clients ["desktop","local-browser"]
  ManagedPolicyRefusedError: Example Corp's policy does not allow remote clients, so the server cannot advertise an address.

Not checked: a real TLS-terminating proxy or ingress in front of the server, and the desktop-managed backend. No UI changed, so there are no screenshots.

… address

A server in a Pod, container or VM behind an ingress reports only the
addresses on its own interfaces, such as http://<pod-ip>:3773/. Clients never
learn the https address the proxy answers at, and linking two such machines
means typing that address by hand, because linking refuses plain http outside
loopback and the tailnet.

`--advertise-url` (repeatable) and `T3CODE_ADVERTISE_URL` (comma-separated)
take https origins. The server refuses to start on plain http, a path, a
query or credentials, since clients keep only the origin and a path would
name another app there. DirectEndpoints reports them first, as a new
`configured` kind, ahead of the interface addresses it already reports. A
managed policy without remote clients refuses the setting, as it refuses
Tailscale Serve.

Clients need no code change. `directEndpoints` is already a forward
compatible array, so a client that predates the kind drops the entry and
keeps the rest. Route learning adds the address as an https route, and
`linkableMachines` offers it first because it keeps the server's order.
`peerOrigin` and the interface addresses are unchanged.

Walkthrough

The server accepts configured HTTPS origins through CLI flags or an environment variable. It reports them as direct endpoints for client route discovery and linking. Managed reachability checks reject advertised URLs when remote clients are disallowed.

Changes: Advertised HTTPS endpoints

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configure advertised HTTPS origins
apps/server/src/cli/config.ts, apps/server/src/config.ts, apps/server/src/cli/config.test.ts
The CLI adds --advertise-url and T3CODE_ADVERTISE_URL. It validates HTTPS origins, removes duplicates, applies CLI-over-environment precedence, and includes nonempty values in server configuration. Tests cover validation and resolution.
Report configured endpoints
packages/contracts/src/server.ts, packages/contracts/src/server.test.ts, apps/server/src/environment/DirectEndpoints.ts, apps/server/src/environment/DirectEndpoints.test.ts
The direct endpoint contract adds the configured kind. Endpoint resolution lists configured URLs before discovered endpoints. Tests cover endpoint ordering and decoding.
Learn and use advertised routes
packages/client-runtime/src/connection/routes.test.ts, packages/client-runtime/src/linkRequest.test.ts, apps/server/src/peer/PeerLinks.test.ts, docs/user/remote-access.md
Tests cover learning configured HTTPS routes, listing configured endpoints first for linking, and linking through an advertised proxy address. The documentation describes route discovery, pairing behavior, and proxy requirements.
Enforce reachability policy
apps/server/src/policy/managedLimits.ts, apps/server/src/policy/managedLimits.test.ts, apps/server/src/server.ts, docs/user/managed-policy.md
The server passes advertised URLs to the reachability check. The check refuses startup when remote clients are disallowed and at least one advertised URL is configured. Tests and policy documentation cover this condition.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the feature (advertising an HTTPS address from a server behind a reverse proxy) and the scope (server). It matches the main change in the changeset. It uses a conventional commit format with a plain-language summary, as the template suggests.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the template sections: Problem, Change, Scope and approval, and Verification. It explains the problem, the change, and the limits of the change. The Verification section lists focused tests, a manual old-client decode, a live server run, and refused-startup output, and it states what was not checked. The Scope section explains why there is no prior maintainer approval. The template asks for a linked bug issue, and the Scope section links none, instead it links a sibling PR and an issue (#33532) and gives a reason for no prior discussion. The template says the change should be a bug fix and this PR adds a feature, so the scope conflicts with the template. The author acknowledges this and offers to move to Ideas. Because the rest of the description is substantially complete, the check passes. The Scope gap is noted in the resolution.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes implement the PR purpose: operator-configured HTTPS origins through --advertise-url and T3CODE_ADVERTISE_URL. They cover config parsing (apps/server/src/cli/config.ts and config.test.ts), the ServerConfig advertisedUrls property (apps/server/src/config.ts), configured endpoint reporting (DirectEndpoints.ts and its test), the configured kind in packages/contracts/src/server.ts with its forward-compatible decode test, the managed-policy refusal (managedLimits.ts, server.ts), the PeerLinks proxy test, route-learning tests in routes.test.ts, and user documentation. No file in the reviewed change set is unrelated to this feature. The previously uncertain loopback filter in linkRequest.ts is not changed by this PR, so it is no longer a scope concern. Lack of #33532 client changes is an unmet requirement, not an out-of-scope change.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Directly linked #33532 requires that linking offer only addresses the linking server accepts, and that a machine left with no acceptable address opens the address field. At the reviewed head, packages/shared/src/hostClassification.ts has no acceptsLinkCredentials export, and the whole-PR diff against the merge base does not change that file. The #33532 client changes are absent: linkableMachines in packages/client-runtime/src/linkRequest.ts is not changed, so it still removes loopback addresses unconditionally and keeps plain http LAN and Pod addresses that PeerLinks.peerOrigin refuses. The Web and Mobile LinkRequestCard helpers (linkRequestMachineUrls, linkRequestInitialAddress) are not changed. The new linkRequest.test.ts case covers configured HTTPS endpoint ordering, not the #33532 credential rule. The PR description and the PR summary both state that the #33532 client-side work is separate from this PR. Therefore the #33532 requirements are not implemented here. The configured-endpoint server feature is a separate requirement set and does not satisfy #33532.

Resolution

Implement the #33532 requirements in this PR or link a separate change that does. Add acceptsLinkCredentials(url) to packages/shared/src/hostClassification.ts: accept https, or plain http on a loopback or Tailscale host. Make PeerLinks.peerOrigin call it with unchanged error messages. In linkableMachines, keep only URLs that pass it. Offer a loopback address (any scheme) only when the client has a loopback route to the linking environment, replacing the unconditional loopback filter. Update the Web and Mobile LinkRequestCard helpers so the agent address and a picked machine's addresses use the same rule, and a machine with no acceptable address opens an empty address field. Add tests for plain http LAN and Pod addresses, bare Tailscale addresses, loopback with and without a loopback route, and the card helpers.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Handle proxy request errors in the test proxy.

The upstream request from NodeHttp.request has no error handler. If the target is unreachable or closes early, the process raises an unhandled error event. The test then fails with an unclear crash instead of a 502 response. Add a handler that answers 502.

Proposed fix

-        request.pipe(
-          NodeHttp.request(
+        const upstream = NodeHttp.request(
             `${target}${request.url}`,
             {
               method: request.method,
               headers: { ...request.headers, host, "x-forwarded-proto": "https" },
             },
             (answer) => {
               response.writeHead(answer.statusCode ?? 502, answer.headers);
               answer.pipe(response);
             },
-          ),
-        );
+        );
+        upstream.on("error", () => {
+          if (!response.headersSent) response.writeHead(502);
+          response.end();
+        });
+        request.pipe(upstream);

current-head takeover verification

all 32 checks are green on final head 7f34361a80584ae84b49e805196988be916db957. no conflicts or unresolved review threads remain. both independent reviewers approved this exact head with no findings. the original 15-file scope is preserved. no dev processes or testboxes are retained.

final head 7f34361a80584ae84b49e805196988be916db957 also addresses the new review finding: rejected advertised urls no longer appear in env or flag diagnostics. extended the existing rejection row with a query token, observed it fail before the fix, then pass. actual cli env and flag invocations both exit 1 without token=secret. the flag uses the same schema and the existing validation error rather than the raw-value error wrapper; its typed decoder is compiled once. final check:changed passed all 37 affected package typechecks, lint, format, graphql, both knip passes and 111 tests in 8 files.

merged current main bdf6c6ec89 into the original head with merge commit 0e12c0d7eda737d2680d0224ee603ae6a2494288, preserving both test sections in the two conflicts. added an error handler to the test proxy so upstream connection errors return 502 instead of crashing the test process. no production behavior or scope changed beyond the original feature. pushed to the existing contributor branch without force.

vp run check:changed bdf6c6ec890114373079a164e3f5f5aa4347cb21 passed through blacksmith-check: format, lint, both knip passes, graphql, 37 affected package typechecks, and 111 tests in 8 files. the worker uses a shallow source snapshot; its comparison ancestry was supplied explicitly against the merged main commit. both independent read-only reviewers approved this exact head with no findings.

started the exact merged head with isolated state. Playwright and /usr/bin/google-chrome paired the real client and rendered environments settings. its config stream contained directEndpoints: [{"kind":"configured","httpBaseUrl":"https://advertise-pr33559.test:4443/"}]. a real local tls reverse proxy preserving Host and forwarding websockets returned http 200 and the same environment id to chrome. dev processes and the testbox were stopped.

the linked-issue bot suggestion to implement sibling #33532 is outside this configured-endpoint feature; the pr description already identifies it as separate work. no bot-thread replies were posted.

unverified on this merged head: automatic route selection/fallback through the proxy, live two-environment linking, native clients, windows/macos, public ingress, tailscale, and t3 connect. the earlier evidence below is historical verification of the original head.

Verified in a real dev environment

verified head 0521ecbfbc8824a84674864e2f8c97022c0ef67c as-is on a Linux Boat VM. no code changes were needed.

  • reproduced on github/main (4c924ff4e6): with T3CODE_ADVERTISE_URL=https://advertise-pr33559.test:4443, the config stream reports directEndpoints: [] on a loopback bind. the paired client shows only its original route.
  • installed and ran the exact pr head with vp run dev. drove the actual web client using repository Playwright and /usr/bin/google-chrome. used isolated app state, a real git project added through the ui, and real Codex gpt-6.1-sol turns. no mocks or fixtures.
  • put real tls reverse proxies in front of the backend, preserving Host, forwarding websockets, and setting X-Forwarded-Proto: https. paired through seed-pr33559.test:4444. the client automatically learned advertise-pr33559.test:4443, marked it "found automatically", and used it after i reordered it first. a fresh thread returned "learned https route works." through that route.
  • stopped only the advertised proxy: the client fell back to the original paired route and stayed connected. restarting without the setting removed the learned route while preserving the paired route. a wildcard bind still reported the existing lan endpoints. multiple configured origins were normalized, deduplicated, and reported before lan endpoints.
  • actual cli startup rejected http, path-prefixed, and credential-bearing addresses with exit 1. the credential error omitted the password. a managed policy without remote clients rejected an advertised address before listening.

vp run check:changed passed through blacksmith-check: format, lint, both knip passes, graphql, typechecks for 37 packages, and 101 tests in 8 files. existing head ci reports 30 successful checks.

Not verified

native desktop, iOS, or Android clients; macOS/Windows-specific behavior; public dns/ca/ingress deployment; Tailscale or T3 Connect. tls used a locally generated certificate. live two-environment linking was not exercised under the one-dev-server constraint; the existing focused peer-link tests passed, but those are not live-app proof.
